How GIS is uniquely suited to enable utilities to optimize operations, improve network management, and make better decisions.

The world's water sector is still struggling with outdated infrastructure issues. The current infrastructure is inadequate, antiquated, and decaying. Global non-revenue water rates are estimated to be 30% to 35% due to leaky pipelines. Sewer overflows and contamination are serious issues caused by overworked wastewater collection systems. Utility managers must always be agile, resilient, and resourceful because of altering financial and personnel conditions, quickening technical advancements, and expanding regulatory frameworks.

In this webinar, will discuss how GIS is uniquely suited to enable utilities to optimize operations, improve network management, and make better decisions. GIS serves as the foundation for this digital transformation. The webinar will also share the report's findings and innovative customer examples on leveraging data-driven insights and coordinated operations so that you can learn from them to meet your goals.

Key Points:

Understand how GIS improves water asset management, network connectivity, integration to other sources of data and enables information access across the organization from the office to the field.
Learn how digital transformation in utilities can support coordinated operations, network management, and data integration.
Explore innovative digital water technologies, such as integration and cloud-based solutions, to discover how they can enhance water resource management and resilience.
